Here’s a super easy and classic pecan pie recipe — simple, gooey, and delicious! 🥧
🥣 Ingredients
- 1 cup light corn syrup (or maple syrup for a twist)
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 3 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cups pecan halves
- 1 unbaked 9-inch pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
🔥 Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium bowl, whisk together corn syrup, brown sugar, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla until smooth.
- Stir in pecans and mix well.
- Pour the mixture into the unbaked pie crust.
- Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until the center is set and a knife comes out mostly clean.
- Cool completely before slicing — this helps it firm up and get that perfect gooey texture.
🧡 Tips
- If the crust browns too quickly, cover the edges with foil halfway through baking.
- Serve with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a cozy dessert.
